Where the money goes
A trustee accounting for the trust's money on camera, in plain language.
In short
How does a no profit, no loss hospital fund itself?
Shree Prannath Arogya Trust runs the hospital on a no profit, no loss basis, which means charges are set to cover costs rather than to generate a surplus. An OPD consultation including medicine does not cover what it costs to provide; donations close that gap.
- Trust formed 1993, registration E/3384
- PAN AABTS2915H
- No profit, no loss basis
- Twelve institutions run by the trust
This film has not been made yet. What it would cover is set out below.
What it covers
- What no profit, no loss means in practice
- Why a consultation needs funding behind it
- What donations actually pay for
- The trust's registration and 80G position
- What the trust does not yet publish, and why
Why it is worth making
A charitable trust asking the public for money owes the public an explanation of what happens to it. Annual reports are not published at present, so a trustee saying it on camera is the most direct accounting available.
What filming needs from the hospital
- A trustee willing to be filmed and named
- Agreement on what financial detail may be stated
- The current 80G certificate, for the on-screen facts
Phone footage shot steadily is worth more than nothing, so none of this waits on a production budget. Call 0261 2510050 to arrange it.
